As the ICAP theory suggests, cognitive engagement is influencedby the environment in which student learning takes place. Despite educators developingcurriculum (i.e. homework, projects, writing assignments, etc.) to influence student’s out-of-classenvironment, cognitive engagement outside the classroom is rarely addressed in the literature onSTEM students. One of the unique contributions of our instrument is the measurement of cognitiveengagement in two distinct environments: inside the classroom and outside the classroom.
